PBL is one of several related pedagogies that are designed to engage students in active learning and enhance learning outcomes. Like PBL, context-based learning (CBL) uses a real life context to motivate learners but, unlike PBL, may not involve problem solving. CBL has been used extensively in secondary science education as the underlying design principle of whole curricula (Ramsden, 1997; Bennett and Luben, 2006; Parchmann et al., 2006). Process-oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) has become popular in chemistry in higher education and uses an inquiry or problem-based approach, without necessarily using a real life context (Farrell et al., 1999).
